so which do you prefer? The elements: storm fire and ice or the spiritual (i believe thats what they're called) myth life and death? And if there was a 3v3 face off between them who would win?

I am more an elements guy because thats how i am.

And i think the pvp match would end up a 1v1 between the ice and death.

I'm currently a , however i'm much more supportive of the spirit schools. Also it can go either way, elemental is meant for the most powerful offensive skills and straight forward strategy. Spirit on the other hand uses strange combos and sytrategies for survival and defense as well as attack.

probably the spiritual because life has resist kind of like ice now days and life loves spamming heals most of the time in 2v2 3v3 and 4v4 pvp. and myth could use earthquake to get rid of shields and blades and use shatter and death can use lots of infections and keep theirselves alive by using steal healths so the spiritual would probably win.

Good question Zac. I have the following characters so I am undecided.

Wolf Skullslinger Archmage
Wolf Deathhammer Archmage
Wolf Stormblood Transcended
Wolf Mythhammer Legendary (the best level title)
And plain Wolf initiate

You can see why I'm undecided right? (all of them hold PvP titles)

Can't decide, although if pressed I'd say spiritual cause death and myth have very powerful combat-altering tricks that put elementalists to shame. (Except maybe ice)

Edit: Also it seems that spiritists are more friendly, cooperative, and perceptive people to work with. Often when I'm teaming with another fire or storm they are working at cross-purposes, or just off doing their own thing. Even if you have more firepower (literally), more pips, better accuracy, a crit aura, etc. they will continue to blade themselves and compete with you for kills. And sometimes this costs us the match.

I see this at all levels - beginner, master, legendary. So I can't really believe that it's due to inexperience. It may just be that the test at the beginning really does pick up on a player's natural temperament.

I like elemental more because elemental has the best tank, and then they have the highest hitter. Death isn't bad though. But I still like elemental. The only thing about elemental that I dislike would be the powerpip chance is around the 60% range.

Spiritual. Myth is great with helping: they can remove blades, summon minions, hit really high, and get rid of shields easily. How would you survive the Mirror Lake Spectral guardians without pierce/shatter?!

Life: Must I explain? They heal very well and keep us all alive!

Death: Death has the ability to attack and heal themselves at the same time, plus they have a lot of DoTs! They are also very good healers!

It would be a close fight but elemental I don't think would win. But if you put every wizard except balance in batlee between elemental and spiritual, they would win because of shear numbers.

Depends on thier strategies they use, if spiritual shields like mad, they might win, but if elemental attacks like crazy they might win also.

SPIRITUAL! and im not just saying that because im. Elemental fizzles a lot and they don't have life which means there is not random person healing everyone every round. Death has many traps and health drains so yea you get the point. Spiritual would most definitely win. (no offense elemental people you guys are still awesome)

It is elemental - - and spirit - - then alone is balance - - so which one do you think is best? I think spirit is because it has life and myth, they are the 2 best schools, in my opinion. also there is astral - - which has encahntments, charms, and polymorphs.

I think they both have strengths and weaknesses. That's why on most of my wizards if I'm an elemental wizard my secondary is spiritual, and if I'm a spiritual wizard my secondary would be an elemental.

If I had to choose one, it may be elemental, but I'm pretty unbiased.

Thats why i think spirituals would win. I used to have a guy and I used to have a guy but now i have a guy. I'm in krokatopia with my so it might be a little to early to judge but is AWESOME!

would wipe out all the other schools, but spirit would win in a fight against the elements. The Titans wouldn't stand a chance against a Forest Lord, Scarecrow, And Orthrus all at once.

I am a balance wizard, so listen to my thoughts.
I am not saying this just because I like the schools, but Spiritual schools would easily win.

Life can counter storm. If storm uses sirens, or any other spell, life can heal.
Death, well, Death, Death can keep themselves alive. Attack = heals to Death. Low on health, high on attack.
Now this is the part which helps most.
Myth, Myth can take away storms blades, which practically equals nothing without them.
Then, they can use earthquake, taking most of the elemental schools' blades away.
Then, no shields as well.
Myth can counter most schools, so then life keeps them alive, death attacks, and myth takes away all negative things.

Make it a 3v3 between Fire, Storm, Ice, and Death, myth, life.

Fire would go after life.
Storm would go after Death
Ice would go after Myth

Interesting you bring up the Astral schools :) Out of those I'd say Sun would be first, followed closely by Star, with Moon being an extremely far third for me (after Zafaria, the polymorphs are totally weak and useless).

I'd say Spiritual for me because Myth is my main/favorite school. Plus, I have a level 65 Death and a newb Life that I'm planning on leveling up soon-ish. The only wiz of an elemental school that I', definitely planning on doing is Ice. I don't hate Fire or Storm, I just find them less interesting overall.
